Another labour-of-love blog – Old Weird America – pictures, downloads, links and lots of history, ‘using Harry Smith’s Folkways Anthology as a roadmap to explore american music’ http://oldweirdamerica.wordpress.com/
Included are downloads of sixty – yes, 60 – versions of the infamous Stacka / Stagger Lee tune
http://oldweirdamerica.wordpress.com/category/19-stackalee-by-frank-hutchison/
This appears to be a work in progress, so I’m avidly waiting for more on Richard ‘Rabbit’ Brown’s James Alley Blues, my favourite Anthology track, which occurs towards the end of collection.
